See if you have the stock pully on it still, but is your boosting 15psi on a stock pulley i think your cat is clogged, take pictures and upload them of under the hood

The computer did detect it, thats why you got the code as far as replacement, get whatever you like. Just make sure you can pass inspection if you go catless

No you will ot need to change the pulley our car (supercharged) our know for getting clogged cats. Just get it replace or order an aftermarket downpipe from ZZP.

OP - If you have 60# injectors, they often idle like crap and throw the p0300 code. Won't cause any real problems if the CEL is thrown at idle just annoying. A tune could solve your problem if you find an experienced tuner.
